Speed In The States! The 2017 Honda Civic Type R

When we think of Honda’s fleet of vehicles, we often think of dependable, reliable and rather solid for the long term. While there is a certain focus on power and performance, it’s not the only focus. Well today Honda is back, bringing something to American shores that has never been here before; The 2017 Honda Civic Type R.

Today we get our first look at the machine, a beast of a ride that finds a more muscular build and tough stance. The ride features a highly-reflective, finely-grained, brushed aluminum finish, while including a carbon fiber splitter and side skirts, diamond-mesh air intake inserts, 20-inch wheels with 245-section performance tires, and triple functional tailpipes. No word on power of anything specs, but those are certain to come soon. Check out the intense and eye-catching new ride in the images below and speak your thoughts on it after the jump. Stay tuned for much more from Honda coming very soon!
